In the middle of the night, Taiyuan City was dark and silent, only the north wind was howling fiercely.

Chu Tianya picked up the big soup bowl that had bottomed out, and exaggeratedly stretched out his tongue and licked it at the bottom of the bowl, causing Xiao Linglong and Xiao Ai to giggle together.

"What about you!" Xiao Linglong was speechless, shaking her head again and again.

Xiao Ai also said: "Brother Chu, you are simply ruining your beautiful image in my mind!" ”

"It's okay, it's used to ruining and ruining." Chu Tianya put down the bowl and burped with a smile, "The last meal of stew, there will be no meat to eat from today on." This bowl is not allowed to be washed, and if I miss the taste of venison jerky in the future, I can take it out and smell it. ”

The second daughter laughed speechlessly again, Xiao Ai ignored Chu Tianya's unreasonable request, quickly cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and took them to wash.

After seeing Xiao Ai leave, Xiao Linglong said, "You have discussed it in the Dutong Mansion today, how about it?" ”

"What else?" Chu Tianya smiled indifferently, poured a glass of boiling water to drink, and said slowly, "The matter has come to this, do we have any other choice?" ”

"It seems that the real Armageddon is coming soon." Xiao Linglong said, "The Jurchens' combat style has always been fierce and wild, and over the years, there has not been a single city they want that has not been defeated. For Taiyuan, Wanyan Zonghan has already done enough articles, and now Taiyuan has been completely isolated and surrounded by them. Although there are now more than 100,000 people in Taiyuan City, every day of siege will deepen the crisis in Taiyuan City. If nothing else, food and grass alone are already in danger - how long can we keep going on like this? ”

"I don't know." Chu Tianya shook his head, raised his eyes to look at Xiao Linglong, and said, "It can only be a day, a day." ”

Xiao Linglong smiled very quietly, "Now it seems that your previous efforts have been in vain, and Taiyuan is still in such a desperate situation?" ”

"It is up to man to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen." Chu Tianya shook his head and smiled, "How much can I reverse the overall situation?" Now, Wanyan Zonghan is determined to win Taiyuan; The new defeat of the imperial court ceded Taiyuan, and we are already isolated. All these phenomena show that we seem to be in a desperate situation. But I always firmly believe that as long as we persevere, there will be variables and miracles! ”

"By miracle, do you mean the rebels outside the city?" Xiao Linglong frowned lightly and said, "Although we haven't heard from them for a long time, we can vaguely guess from the actions of the Jurchens that the power of Xishan has completely disappeared; The Nine Mountains of Taihang were also divided and encircled, and fell into the encirclement and control of the Jurchens. ”

"So, you're desperate?" Chu Tianya smiled.

"It's not despair, but I really can't think of any variables." Xiao Linglong said.

Chu Tianya nodded, "Actually, you don't have to think about it, if you think about it, there will be no results." The only thing we can do now is stay the course. I will never give up at any time, unless the Jurchens end my life with swords and guns. Since it is a miracle, it is not something that can be expected and counted on. Hold on, only by persevering to the end can it be possible to wait until the moment when a miracle happens! ”

Xiao Linglong nodded silently, and said in her heart, as He Bo said, the man in front of him is not good at writing or martial arts, but he has strong beliefs and persistence. Perhaps, this is the source of his power and the expression xiàn!

"From tomorrow onwards, you are not allowed to follow me again, and I am not allowed to go to the city." Chu Tianya said suddenly.

Xiao Linglong looked at him in surprise and found that his expression was unprecedentedly stern, and his tone was irrefutable, and there was even some domineering.

"You've never spoken to me in such a tone." Xiao Linglong didn't shy away from it, and smiled indifferently, "Do you think I will agree?" ”

"I don't need your consent because I'm not talking to you." Chu Tianya smiled, but said it categorically.

Xiao Linglong frowned slightly, turned her face sideways, and squinted at Chu Tianya, her expression was very strange.

Chu Tianya smiled, "That's it!" I've got to go back to my room and go to bed early. Tomorrow early in the morning, I have to go to the military patrol camp. ”

"You wait." Xiao Linglong said, "Why should I listen to you? At the very least, you have to give me a convincing reason to be convinced. ”

"Hey, you're boring. I finally got a boss, but you were so uncooperative. Chu Tianya smiled and said, "If you really need a reason, then ...... I don't want you to die before I do! ”

Xiao Linglong shook her head gently, "I knew that you were this selfish idea!" ”

"Selfish?" Chu Tianya raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Xiao Linglong said indifferently: "My personal experience - in fact, only those who survive can feel the pain of losing their loved ones. You're not selfish, what's it? ”

"Loved ones?" Chu Tianya caught the inadvertent word in Xiao Linglong's words and laughed slyly.

Xiao Linglong immediately smiled, "Okay, friend! ”

"Since it's just a friend, it's not worth the pain you have to deal with!" Chu Tianya smiled, "Then it's decided, don't bargain with me like a peddler." From tomorrow onwards, you will honestly stay at home and practice martial arts with Uncle He, and you will not be allowed to go anywhere. If you still want my friend to live a few more days, don't distract me. ”

Xiao Linglong stared at Chu Tianya and was silent for a moment, and finally nodded lightly, "I'll listen to you once." However, your three-legged cat's kung fu is not enough to survive the chaos of the city war. Therefore, you must bring Ada and Anu with you. ”

"You're hurting my self-esteem again!" Chu Tianya spread out his hands and smiled bitterly, "I've been practicing martial arts very hard these days, but freezing three feet is not a day's cold!" ……”

Xiao Linglong interrupted Chu Tianya's words with a straight face, "Don't bargain with me like a peddler, it's decided!" ”

"......" Chu Tianya was directly speechless, and could only smile and nod.

At dawn, the heavy clouds are closed, and the heavens and the earth are like a cover. The north wind was still howling fiercely, and the water outside the house was splashing into ice.

Chu Tianya rode the jujube red horse that had lost a lot of weight to the military patrol camp, and he was still training the new army as before.

Facts have proved that human potential is infinite and can always adapt quickly to the environment; Especially in a critical environment, more power can always be stimulated.

Although the military patrols do not have a fixed task of defending the city, they must always be vigilant and constantly rush to the aid of the four directions. Wherever there is a war at the city gate, there is a military patrol. Therefore, they actually had a more difficult task and experienced more battles than the Shengjie army stationed at the head of the city.

After these days, these newly recruited miscellaneous army patrol troops have grown up rapidly in the harsh environment and repeated actual combat training. Their strict discipline, tenacious style, and fierce combat power are not comparable to those veteran soldiers of the forbidden army who are known as "elite" in the peaceful situation.

Chu Tianya and these more than 10,000 military patrols are like a piece of stubborn iron, after repeated wars and many times of pure refining, they finally hit the "iron tendons", revealing a bit of real steel. At present, more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians in Taiyuan City have developed the habit of "looking for military patrols when there is something." No matter whether the fighting is tense at the head of the city or where a civil unrest accident breaks out in the city, it is indispensable to ask the military patrol to help.

These more than 10,000 military patrols are now not only the elite mobile troops in Taiyuan City, but also the guardian god of the peace in the backyard of the city. In view of this, Chu Tianya's repeated strict military discipline of military patrols made them not only have to maintain strong combat effectiveness and adaptability, but also erect an "image" in the minds of the people, which is conducive to maintaining law and order in the city in case the fortress is breached from the inside.

Subtly, Chu Tianya and the military patrols under his command have now been recognized by the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Taiyuan City. Inadvertently, some people began to call these military inspectors, called "Chu Family Army".

Today, after a drill, the Chu army went to the Sifang City Gate and various places where the people in the city gathered to distribute food according to the divisions. Chu Tianya himself took a thousand relatives to the east gate to inspect. This is the weakest part of the Sifang City Gate, and if the Jurchens are going to attack the city today, the East Gate is the most critical.

At this time, it was still early. In the past, many Taiyuan people who are accustomed to a slow-paced life are still lazily shrunk in the quilt and do not turn over.

Chu Tianya hadn't reached the east gate yet, when suddenly there was a series of earth-shattering cannons outside the city, followed by a sky-shattering horn and rumbling drums!

Everyone's hearts tightened - the Jurchens had really come to attack the city!

"Speed up and rush to the east gate!" Chu Tianya shouted, and rode his horse to run.

At this time, in all the Jurchen camps outside the city, drums and horns were ringing in unison, war horses were galloping, and all kinds of siege equipment were densely packed throughout the school field. On the tower in the center of the school field, a blood-red wolf's head flag was waved high, and a clear flag slogan was played - attack with all your might!

The wolf lord Yan Zonghan has already issued a military order, and from today onwards, he will attack the city with all his strength at any cost and never stop, until he defeats Taiyuan City!

The Jurchens, who had been tired and impatient for a long time under siege, finally felt a little stimulus. They were like a pack of hungry wolves, and now they smelled blood and flesh, and their eyes turned green. There may not be much money or women in this small Taiyuan city in front of you, but after this city is built, the "golden channel" to the rich land of the Central Plains can be completely opened up - there is a rich world, and there are beautiful women!

The earth-shattering trumpets and drums rang for half an hour, and the hundreds of thousands of Jurchen troops who had been besieging outside Taiyuan City for a month or two poured out for the first time today. They were like a black ocean erupted with hurricanes and tsunamis, overwhelmingly swept towards the lonely Taiyuan Tucheng, and the surging surging attacks swept in......

When Chu Tianya jumped all the way to the city, it happened that a big throwing stone fell beside him and knocked over a big drum, and the gravel cracked loudly, and there was a gap in the female wall on this side, which almost smashed him into a meatloaf on the spot!

Wang Xun was waving his knife and roaring, "Bed crossbow, shoot hard at those catapults!" The golden dog is serious today, brothers, fight with them! ”

With a "bang", Chu Tianya drew his sword out of the sheath, and shouted to the military patrols behind him: "All the army patrols listen to the order - go to the city to help the battle!" ”
